Liberty City, USA. The worst place in America. You've been betrayed and left for dead. Now you're taking revenge, unless the city gets you first. Mob bosses need a favor, crooked copes need help and street gangs want you dead. You'll have to rob, steal and kill just to stay out of serious trouble. Anything can happen out there.

Trivia

Originally the police cars were going to use the NYPD blue and white paint scheme. A few screenshots of them can be seen in the map/poster that comes with the game (the best one is right under the word "Liberty" in the title "Welcome To Liberty City"). It is believed that the police cars were changed to the standard black and white paint scheme to make them not look like the NYPD cars because of the terrorist attacks on the USA of 11 September 2001.

Goofs

When the player has a wanted star and is being chased by a police officer on foot, the player can escape by climbing into a car, closing the door behind them and driving away. However, the police officer can open the player's door while the player starts driving; rather than reacting to the vehicle in motion, the officer literally stands in place and opens the door as though the car was perfectly still.

One of the most enjoyable games I've ever played (views may vary)
13 April 2002 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

Grand Theft Auto 3 is a violent, no holds barred (with cheats of course), racist and audacious video game. While people who have a taste for these video games will enjoy it more than others who don't, I think that's the point. But for all ages, big or small, tiny or large, black or white even, this is reccomended if you have PS2- worth it alone for the radio. A
